Godzilla’s 50th birthday was marked by an over-the-top celebration. On Nov. 29, 2004, the much-loved monster was given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in front of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre. The event also honored his retirement from the movies, after completing the Toho Pictures Inc. film “Godzilla: Final Wars.”
